My Sakura S3

Painted the leather on my non-original black S3 just for fun!

I would have to dive deep to get in touch with my feminine side to be comfortable enough to wear that Nikon around places I photograph 🙂

On the other hand, it's probably quite disarming for street photography!

That.
Is.
So.
Exquisite!!!
What an utterly gorgeous camera. Please tell me you use it constantly because that piece of art needs to be out and about.

Well done. A perfect tribute.

Beautiful job. Cherry Blossoms make a lot of things look better.

Yup. I have blue snake leather on my M 240. I love it and I doubt anyone else will 😉

That’s really cool. And the fact you did it yourself is even better.

Thanks all - I was nervous about "messing it up" but it's something I always wanted to try. The camera has been out in the world since the cherry blossoms were added and has had some positive/curious comments from strangers. It is smooth - well-working camera; I suspect it was serviced when it was painted black - good viewfinder and all-around good performer.
